A lack of winter blockbusters took a bite out of AMC Theatres’ quarterly earnings. Losses at the world’s largest cinema operator widened to $202.1 million as the box office got off to a rough start to the 2025,

The parent of AMC Theatres recorded revenue of $862.5 million for the three months to March 31, which is down 9 percent from a year-earlier revenue line at $951.4 million. The mega-exhibitor also widened its first quarter loss to $202.1 million, compared to a year-earlier loss of $163.5 million.

AMC Theatres CEO Adam Aron called the weak start to 2025 "a distorting anomaly that has already corrected itself."
